"AirRegi is a widely used, tablet-based point-of-sale app in Japan. Currently, around 260,000 establishments, stores, and commercial facilities use this proprietary app to accept payments from their clients."

It makes sense that a transition to accept bitcoin would be underway for more US-based stores.

retailers will receive bitcoin when they understand the benefits of having bitcoin and accept what payments they use bitcoin, because for now few retailers know and accept payments using bitcoins.

In Japan, you do not get trouble to find the retailer accpet Bitcoin, therefore, it means the retailer accept Bitcoin still depend on the policies of the government. As long as the government accept Bitcoin is legally and can use for payment, I think there are many retailers always be ready to accept Bitcoin.
